Polluted Water Bodies In Kashmir

Water bodies have been polluted by the people of this time and a big problem each one among us is faceing today and can be curbed by the strict action by the govt on violators. Dumping of untreated sewage and other wastes into water bodies are the main reasons of pollution.. It is the one of the major issues. The government should ensure proper sewage system especially for industries and for the dumping of this wastage Rural Development and Urban Development departments should be assigned this work on war footing bases. There should be a sound sewage system. Strict laws should be imposed and culprits should be booked. Wrong doers should be made aware of the consequences of this heinous crime if their do not follow the system. This is a major threat to human existence. Drains should be cleaned on a regular basis not like author saw in Anantnag town and so for as Doru town is concerned approximately in a fortnight only once drains are cleaned. Concrete drains are required to be built everywhere wherever necessary. Technology should be developed to keep drains away from the sources of water. Water pollution control is a critical challenge and a policy frame work based on timely assessment and management of ecological risks in the setting of water pollution regulations.
Due to increase in water pollution will pose a threat to our existence. These harmful wastes can cause grave dangers such as cancer and genetic mutations in coming generations. Industries are releasing their waste into water bodies resulting polluting these. They don’t know that these pollutants take thousands of years to disappear. Action needs to be taken. It is suggested that easy implementable way to counter this pollution is to De_clog your drains naturally. Keep out oils, fat.
bstain from flushing contaminated liquids, pills, drugs. These contain toxic materials that destroy the quality of water. The authorities must ensure proper sewage treatment and management. Public awareness is the main thing. Aware people about damages caused by it. Always turn off taps. Use environmental friendly safe products. Opt for recycle and reusable options. Best way is not to clean polluted water but to stop polluting it. Our water sources are getting contaminated and it can be controlled by making people aware about the issue. Envaramental organisations should restrict the release of contaminants into water bodies. People should step forward to help the government in solving this problem. We tend to follow certain routines that are polluting our water bodies. Not only wastage, pollution of water also needs to be checked. Heavy fine should be imposed on guilty. Ensure effective sewage treatment process is in place. Minimise use of pesticides. Don’t dispose of chemicals, motor oil, and automotive fluids into sanitary sewer. Don’t throw waste products into rivers. Remember a very little amount of drinking water is left in our country. And if action is not taken, we will be left with none. The government should hold awareness like in COVID-19. One of the effective ways is spread awareness in rural areas. Uneducated people play an important role in mistreating our water bodies. We should take initiative to make this country a best one. This is my message to all the citizens on 26th of Jan. Make the country free from this bad menace. Help the government.
